Last year in Liverpool it was announced that Luxembourg would return to our beloved competition after 30 years. And here they are.

Tali Golergant's Fighter is the winner of the Luxembourgian selection. The song is written by Ana Zimmer, Dario Faini, Manon Romiti en Silvio Lisbonne.
The song is sung in a mix of French and English.
The digital single was released on January 12.

A new version is made for Eurovision and was released on March 29.

Tali  has released (digital) a number of singles since 2020.

Versions:
Fighter - ESC version
- digital 29-3, on the official Malmö album
Fighter - original single version
- digital (12-1)
Fighter - karaoke 
- Official karaoke album (digital)
- The karaoke doesn't match the original nor the ESC version, noticed at the 1:50 to 2:00 mark (Also see comments) 

Luxembourg Song Contest
On Januari 27 Luxembourg had their final with 8 songs, with three songs proceding to a superfinal. 
You can find out more and listen here at rtl.lu. Or search for the official playlist at Spotify (Luxembourg Eurovision Song Contest by RTL radio Lëtzebuerg). All songs have been released as digital singles

Luxembourg's Eurovision is remarkable of course. Often accused of scouting their entries in other countries it worked well for them, clocking up 5 wins with 37 entries. 

They gave us Vicky Leandros when Greece didn't participate yet and Poupéé De Cire, Poupéé De Son when France wasn't ready for a Serge Gainsbourg Eurovision song. 
L'Amour Est Bleu (Love Is Blue) from 1967 became of the great evergreens albeit mostly in instrumental versions.

  1. The karaoke version differs from the original/ESC version. It seems there's a 3rd version of the song.
